Course evaluation:    10 pop up quiz (10%), 2 projects ( 20%), 2 mid term exams (15 + 15 = 30 %), Final exam (40 %)

Notes:
   There will be two projects. Projects will be conducted along with the classes, starting first week.
   The first project will be on central heating, cogeneration. The second project will be on shell and
   tube heat exchangers.The use of the ANSYS program will be explained and applied to the second project.
   
   Seven problem sets will be given to the student starting the first week and continuing every other week.
   Students are advised to solve these problems but solving them is not compulsory. Those students who solve
   one or more of the problems within one week may hand them to the instructor. Instructor will mark the
   solutions and will return them to the student the following week.Solution of the problems will be put
   on course ON-LINE two weeks after they are assigned.
  
   Exams will be closed book and notes. But the students may prepare one page of a helpful memory sheet (two sides)
   There may be formulas, diagrams and notes on this sheet but no problem solutions. The memory sheet must be
   prepared by the student herself (himself), her (his) name and number must be written at the top of it.
